Gift from father's brother

Dear Sir/madam,

I am going to receive funds online from my father's brother. He is a NRI.

Then I will be transferring the funds to my mother, and we will be investing it in a property in her name.

According to my knowledge, both of them are considered as gifts.

Will there be any income tax involved, in any of the above transaction?

Will there be any income tax involved, if my father's brother directly transfer to my mother's account?

Should we submit any forms related to gift, while filing ITR?

Only the bank statement is enough as proof, if there is an IT enquiry?

Regards,

Syed

Sayed u need to consult tax consultant for transfer of such amount and its limit.

If that amount directly transfered in to your mothers name then bank statement is sufficinet for IT return.

If u like my suggestion then give THANK on my profile.

Dear Client,

Gifts from your paternal uncle and the gift from you to you rmother i snot taxable and completely exempt from tax. Get a Gift Deed drafted and then registered from your uncle to you and then from you to your mother. Two registered Gift Deeds. IN THOSE GIFT DEEDs IT SHOULD CLEARLY BE MENTIONED THAT DONOR OUT Of naturtal love and affection to you is gifting his property to you and yo the recipient is accepting the gift as atoken or as an acknowledgemnt o flove towards your uncle. Same thing should be ementioned in the gift deed executed between you and your nmopther to avoid income tax hassles.Your father's brother can also directly transfer the cash gift into your mother';s Bank account.If you appreciate this answer please click the thank you button on this forum.
